They CAN add armor but it would be a pain in the butt. Maybe it's operator with the head stuck in the body?
They cant because its alredy in the disc waiting to be unlocked once the community reached goals they will be unlocked.
It took all of a day for someone to hack into Halo 3 and find the hayabusa code. Do you honestly think those armors would be there for this long without some tech savy person to leak it?
Bungie spoke of it its called Disc Locked Content.

concerning the Disk Locked Content, i just realized that even modders were unable to access the version and pre-order exclusive armour early. what if this new DLC contains a permission file that allows us to access this armour in the same way
Then explain the new helmet.

My friend has 99.9% armor completion, I'll ask him if its on his armory list. I'll post back later when I find out!

if its disk locked content, it won't show in the armory completion


Oh, I'll ask him to look anyway. Thanks for the Info!

No new helm. And damn the Gungnir knees look retarded in pic 2.


I'm not so sure. Theres seems to be silver "disks" on the side and whats more is that the small visor on the GUNGNIR is on the left side and in the pick its on the right.

he means the knees, and those knees are default


Sorry I quoted the wrong person. I was trying to quote Bobkiller.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

The helmet looks a little glitchy in the screens to be honest so I'm not convinced but that full collar has me very curious.

LOL This goes for everyone who said there wouldnt be any more armor!

HA!!!
You realize people said it's more unlikely to add armor, not impossible. :P

However, if that is a new helmet, that would be the one I'll be wearing.

Keep in mind I almost never quit, I just hate the fact there are over 6 different bans in the game, kind of leads me to think Bungie just enjoy punishing there fanbase.

it was always there, but without the permission file, which cannot be duplicated without the code, no one can use it

What you're refering to is the ability to decide when the community can/can't purchase/unlock new armor. That in no way would stop someone with a modded xbox to unlock whatever they please.


But the map pack could have downloadable content, RIGHT?

Any modder could unlock something they haven't downloaded, RIGHT?!
Very true. But even DLC has limits. I'm not throwing out the possibility of new armor but some of the theroies as to why we (possibly) have it are ridiculous.
concerning the Disk Locked Content, i just realized that even modders were unable to access the version and pre-order exclusive armour early. what if this new DLC contains a permission file that allows us to access this armour in the same way This is above my knowledge but in my opinion it seems unlikely. That being said, it's just my opinion and I really have nothing solid to back it up with.

That chest piece looks different also. It may be collar/breacher or Halo but Halo has a grenade belt.

  • 02.14.2011 12:42 PM PDT

I think the first one is a deformed Gungnir, the second one actually looks new,

  • 02.14.2011 12:42 PM PDT

OMG IT's NoT PossIbLE!!!?!?!?

Seriously why does everyone absolutly think this?

Let me take you down a few roads....

GIVE US BLOOD GULCH!!?!?!
No Bungie said they are not bringing it back ever.
Ok we don't have Blood Gulch now or anything.....

GiVe us TeH ReCaWnZzz!?!?!?!
No! Bungie said you will never have it!?!!
I'm not wearing Recon in Halo 3....

GiVe Us AnOtHEr HaLoz GaME!?!!?
Bungie said they aren't making any more SHUT UP and play H3!
Because Reach doesn't exist

You gotta realize that Bungie likes to lie/stretch the truth. Either it is possible to add DLC or they have more to unlock on the disk or through waypoint.

Oh man, this is getting good. First, people said no FF DLC was possible. And here we are, looking at a shiny new FF map. People said no armor DLC was possible. And yet here we are, looking at a helmet and chest plate that matches no other.

Great find OP. I'm excited to see the details regarding this Armor.

I sincerely hope that Armor can be added in. This would mean more armor along with new maps. Who knows what the possibilities are? This could mean new shoulders, armor effects, full sets, etc.

Now if they had to be unlocked, then we would be talking.

  • 02.14.2011 12:42 PM PDT

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Didn't people also say that Campaign and Firefight DLC was impossible? How are we getting a new Firefight map then?

I'm not convinced, but I'm not ruling out the possibility of Armour DLC being possible until someone hands me actual proof other than some 12 year old putting *PROOF* in his thread title.

Not in a simple patch or update. Each map file in the game has all the content embedded in it. If we were to create new armor, it would either only be available in any new maps that get made after that point, or we would have to send out new map files of all the mulipler and singleplayer maps and require about 9 GB of HD storage. This is economically not feasible.

Then explain the new helmet.


The Recon Helmet you get when you Pre-order the game is only available when you download a "key" to unlock the helmet in-game.

wow that's weird. i thought it was impossible to add armors.

If Bethesda can add new armors to Fallout 3 and Oblivion with downloadable expansions, I don't see why Bungie or 343 can't do the same with Reach.

Really? It's bad enough that you're comparing two different games when it comes to DLC but the fact that you're comparing two single player games with a multiplayer game makes it worse. You can't compare two different games made by two different developers.

Is that a new shoulder piece too? I don't recognize that shoulder.
